The Friends of Case Memorial Library will host soul and jazz singer Rhonda Denét on Aug. 3 at 2 p.m. Denét sings soul in many forms: classic, contemporary and original.
In this concert Denét will be celebrating the “Ladies of Motown” with a collection of hits by the female singing groups, solo artists and songwriters who helped to introduce the world to the Motown sound. These include classic hits from the 1960s and 70s sung by The Supremes, The Marvelettes, Martha & The Vandellas, Mary Wells, Kim Weston and Tammi Terrell.
Denét’s talents emerged when she was a child and followed her into young adulthood. Her family and mentors encouraged her to pursue her dreams into higher education. First, Denét received a bachelor of music in vocal performance from New York University, and then a master’s in arts administration from Florida State University’s School of Music.
